No-one's posting on the book threads themselves either most seem to be me (in various names ) wittering on.

Whispy - should be posting the next one tomorrow

rosmerta · 23/09/2008 10:38

Reason I haven't posted on the book threads is because its hard to figure out whose book is whose!

Flossie, thanks for the offer but I've got plenty to read atm, I'll just wait for the next one

Flamebat · 03/10/2008 08:18

As you can probably tell Whispy... I didn't Will do it today

FlossCampi · 03/10/2008 22:46

squilly: I'm so sorry - I still have your copy of The Thirteenth Tale.... I'm Man Booker reading at the moment, but nearly done (on the last of the shortlist, although it's over 600 pages...) but I can get to that next if you need it back? Really sorry for having held onto it for so long.

squilly · 04/10/2008 08:59

Hi Flossi. I wasn't expecting the Thirteenth Tale back at all, so please don't worry...just pass it on to anyone else who might like it!

I haven't posted comments on the threads for a while . Will sort that as soon as I'm dressed (sitting here in dressing gown with 3 kids upstairs courtesy of the sleepover fairy). Didn't realise how quite having a pfb ofb was

Flamesparrow · 15/10/2008 14:28

Have we all got a book this month??

PsychoAxeMurdererMum · 15/10/2008 14:43

I'm sorry......I have been ignoring this thread.

not had a book this month as yet, but missing has been great nromally forwarding them

FlossCampi · 15/10/2008 15:03

I haven't received a book from this swap since the end of June

Flamesparrow · 15/10/2008 15:12

Flossi - Luna has posted on the fess up thread saying she got FOUR this month, so you get a bumper load any day now

squilly · 15/10/2008 20:39

I got mine, but haven't read it yet . I don't know why, whether it's the kids being back at school or what, but I've been really disconnected the last few weeks.

Sorry I know it's a lame excuse.

I will post comments for my last book and will start on this one tonight.

Then I'll send it over to dinny as usual.

Hope everyone is ok. Weren't there lots of expectant mums on this thread? If so, hope you're all doing well. I'm green with envy right now, thanks to a very late broody spell. Think I'll get a puppy instead!

FlossCampi · 15/10/2008 20:52

Thanks, Flame! I haven't really been looking in the book-swap threads since I didn't have anything to write about. I will have to read fast - although the new Kate Atkinson has just come into the library so I might have to read that first....

mehdismummy · 15/10/2008 21:01

Flamesparrow · 15/10/2008 22:09

Can't see why not, tis just a case of shoving you back in your slot no?

Cocodrillo · 16/10/2008 22:09

mehdismummy! you're back!

if luna's got four to post, she should prob post one of them to you to spread the load a bit.

mehdismummy · 17/10/2008 19:48

nuttymum303 · 21/10/2008 14:39

You can add me, as I have over 600 books on my To Be Read pile. I am willing to lend books out as well. I will list all books for you to pick if necessary.

LostProphet · 29/10/2008 09:45

what's happenin with books atm - who has them, who doesn't etc?

I am posting Squilly's to Whispy today

FlossieT · 29/10/2008 09:46

Hello all - I've just finished squilly's Thirteenth Tale (finally!!). Rosmerta, do you fancy reading this? I could post it on if so.

FlossieT · 29/10/2008 09:48

Whoops, x-post! I don't have any books from the swap at the moment apart from the Thirteenth Tale (which was kind of 'unofficially' circulating outside the regular setup in any case). Last I heard lunavix had just received a batch of four.

LostProphet · 29/10/2008 09:50

Yup, that was the last I heard too.

I sent MM's new address to both luna and missing, but heard nothing from either of them Missing didn't have a book last time apparently, she isn't sure if it is where her house number changed

Cocodrillo · 07/11/2008 08:44

Has anyone had any books this month, or recently at all even?

Flamesparrow · 07/11/2008 09:26

I've sent a group email asking people to check in No book this month for me & Psycho

So, will start a list of what we currently have:

Flamesparrow - Nothing
Psychomum - Nothing
